What is MAX phase materials? MAX phase materials are novel layered carbon-nitride inorganic non-metallic materials with the electrical and thermal conductive qualities of metals, consisting of three elements with the molecular formula Mn+1AXn (n=…
Concrete, a seemingly ordinary construction material, profoundly impacts our lives. Concrete is ubiquitously used in various buildings and projects, from skyscrapers to bridges and roads, from public facilities to home improvement. However, keeping c…
Application Fields of Tungsten Rods As a rod-shaped material made from tungsten, a tungsten rod has advantages such as high density, good thermal conductivity, and corrosion resistance. It is widely used in manufacturing various high-temperature he…
The water-reducing agent should be used with concrete admixture, which will reflect the water-reducing effect. Cement quality is therefore a direct factor of the effect of water-reducing agent. When dealing with different types of "problem" cements,…
Concrete is a modern material that uses a variety of chemical additives, each with their own unique characteristics. These additives play an important part in improving the performance of concrete as well as ensuring its quality. Here are some of the…
Anodes for lithium batteries Materials that store and release Lithium ions are an essential part of the lithium battery. The anode material is responsible for accepting lithium from the positive electrolyte during the charging process. It then relea…
Spherical tungsten powder application fields The spherical powder of tungsten is widely used as a powder metalurgical material in many industries. Following are a few of the most important applications for spherical titanium powder: Hard alloy ma…
What are surfactants, and how do they work? Surfactants belong to a class that reduces surface tension. They can be adsorb on interfaces such as gas-liquids or liquids-liquids. By doing so, they change the properties and affect the stability, wettabi…
Boron has been a major name in the world of chemistry. There have been two Nobel Prizes in Chemistry for the work done on boron. There are a few heat-resistant products on the market that have boric acid added to the glass. This means the glass wi…
The titanium hydride used is a getter, in the electric vacuum method, as hydrogen source for metal foam production, and as source of pure hydrogen. Also, it can be found in powder metallurgy and metal-ceramic sealing to provide titanium to the alloy.…
Boron carbide is also known as black Diamond. It has a molecular structure of B4C. The powder is typically grayish. It is one the hardest materials known (the other two being diamond and cubic boronnitride), which can be found in many industrial appl…
In recent years, transition metal dichalcogenide was one of the key two-dimensional quantum functional material in the world. These materials have a honeycomb like graphene but have spin-orbit coupling and a honeycomb pattern. They also have a honeyc…
